How to use it

  1. Lowercase e: Undercurve up to about the midline, make a small loop back to the left, and come down to the baseline.
  2. Uppercase E: Start near the top, make a small backward curve, a tiny loop in the middle, then a larger curve to the baseline, like a backward 3.
  3. Trace the gray letters slowly, then write on your own in the blank row.

Good to know

  • e joins at the baseline.
  • Lowercase e belongs to the loop letters (e, l, h, k, b, f); teaching letters in these groups makes them easier to learn.
  • Practice words on the sheet: egg, elf, east. Say each word aloud while writing it, then check that every letter sits on the baseline.
  • Keep the paper slanted slightly and let the letters lean to the right.
  • Short, daily practice (5–10 minutes) works better than one long session; trace first, then write from memory in the blank row.

What comes after cursive e?

Next is F and f. Practicing letters from the same stroke group together (the loop letters (e, l, h, k, b, f)) builds the same motion.

Can I change the size or add my own words?

Yes. Change the letter size and tracing options here, or use the cursive worksheet generator to type any words.
